Benin #EndSARS protests hijacked by hoodlums, says Edo deputy gov
The Deputy Governor of Edo State Comrade Philip Shaibu has said that hoodlums have taken over the #EndSARS protests in Benin.
Shaibu’s comment comes after hoodlums carried out two prison breaks on Monday in Benin City, the state capital.
“Hoodlums actually have taken over the exercise,” Mr. Shaibu said.
Speaking on Channels Television Mr Shaibu revealed that many persons injured in the attack, he, however, could not confirm how many persons were killed.
According to Mr. Shaibu, many inmates escaped from the prison, but the deputy governor was not specific on how many.
He pleaded with the protesters to give the government a chance to implement the demands already made.
